13 | Master? More Like Moron!
Sting
"Oh my gosh! I cannot believe you actually said 'training'!" Olga blurted out, laughing at my stupid mistake this morning.
"It's not funny," I grumbled angrily under my breath, "Besides, what else was I supposed to say?! 'Hey Yukino would you go on a date with me'?"
Olga just started laughing again while Rogue and Minerva looked at me like I was crazy.
"That is the point of asking someone out young master," Minerva says.
"Master?" Olga says through his laughter, "More like moron!"
"Hey!" I shout, getting ready to beat him to a pulp.
"Now, now," Rogue says, "Let's night fight over this. Instead—"
"Instead we get this idiot over here to ask Yukino on a real date, instead of a 'training session'," Minerva says, a small smile on her face.
"Exactly," Rogue nods his head in agreement.
"Maybe he should dress in a suit this time," Rufus says thoughtfully from his spot in the corner of the main room of the room.
"Possibly," Minerva says, "However, I think we should keep it casual since it's their first time,"
"Maybe he should ask her on another training session," Olga says, apparently unable to stop laughing.
"He really is an idiot," Rufus says, smiling at the thought.
"Oi!" I shout angrily, "That 'idiot' you're talking about happens to be right here as well as your guild master!"
Minerva simply waves off my outburst and looks at Rogue, "I swear, I feel like I'm talking to a child when it comes to him." She says gesturing to me.
What the heck is going on here?! Since when did I come off as a child?!
That's it!
"I'm leaving," I say irritated, getting up and walking to the door of Rogue and I's hotel room which only causes Olga to laugh even more.
Why do I allow him to stay in the guild?
"We'll meet you at the arena!" Rogue calls, more of an order than anything.
"Have fun 'master'," Olga shouts before I shut the door in a mocking voice, "Make sure not to ask anymore girls on training sessions," He says, and I hear his loud, boisterous laugh echo through the halls of the hotel.
I sigh defeated.
Why is asking a girl out so hard?
Mira
"Gajeel!" Levy whined, as I giggled, "Getup!" She says, trying to drag the dragon slayer of the couch by the arm. Then she looks at me, "Mira come help wake up the crazy lug!"
"Sorry Levy, I got my own dragon slayer to wake up," I say giggling.
"Hmph!" Levy huffs out, "Cana, you can help me!"
"Nuh-uh, no can do," Cana says, "I ran out of booze and I gotta go get more. No way am I going to be able to do the GMG without a good ol' bottle of wine to keep me going." She says, then makes her way out the door.
"Don't forget that the GMG start in less than an hour," I say sweetly after her, to which she waves her hand.
"Yes mom!" She shouts back.
All of a sudden Levy stops, then looks at me and smirks.
"Dragon slayers have really good hearing don't they?" Levy asks me mischievously.
I nod in response, "That's why I'm so surprised he's not up yet, Laxus usually wakes up within a minute."
"Heh, perfect." Levy says, still smirking.
What is she up to?
I was tempted to follower but instead I stayed in place, making something for us to eat before the games.
Our dragon slayers will be hungry after all.
While I'm making breakfast I start humming to myself, more out of habit than boredom. It was something our mother did before she passed away, leaving me, Elfman, and Lisanna alone.
Little did I know...a certain dragon slayer was watching me...
Laxus
I stared at her, without her knowing and without shame.
The little blue mage was in her room rummaging around for something...a horn I think, while metalhead was sleeping on the couch, leaving Mira to her own thoughts.
Dang does she look beautiful like that.
She was moving around the small kitchen swiftly, making breakfast before the Grand Magic Games today.
The Grand Magic Games.
To say the least, I was not excited.
Who knows what kind of crap we're gonna have to go through this time. Something always happens. Always.
"Ya know staring at her isn't gonna make er' fall in love with ya," Gajeel says quietly from behind me.
Stupid dragon shadow abilities!
"And you know that if you do that again, I will knock your teeth out right?" I say, turning around.
Gajeel just lets out a loud laugh, and walks past me but not before laying his hand on my shoulder.
"Take it from a guy who spent a lot of time staring, ya get a lot more done by actually doing rather than looking," He says, then walks away.
As if on cue, the little blue mage walks out, a horn in hand, finally emerging from her room.
She spots Gajeel immediately, "You have got to be kidding me!" She says angrily, "You finally wake up once I find a way to wake you up?!" She says.
"Gihi," Gajeel says, "Mornin' to you too shrimp!" He says, ruffling her hair as he walks to the table. His back to the blue mage.
"I'm not a shrimp," She mutters under her breath, which both Gajeel and I heard. However, I don't think Gajeel noticed that the blue mage was blushing.
Huh, would you look at that. Maybe Gajeel does have a brain behind all that metal.
"Oh Laxus you're awake!" Mira says, looking at me.
Is it weird that I like the way she says my name? It's totally weird...
I give her a small nod in response.
"Well don't just stand there silly," She says, giggling, "Grab a chair and sit down."
Not be able to say no, I walk over to the table and sit down where she has quite literally prepared a feast.
I look over to Gajeel sitting next to me, who's give me a big crap-eating grin.
"Screw you," I whisper under my breath, knowing that he can hear me.
"Gihi, whatever silly," Gajeel says, smirking.
I'm gonna kill him.
